I just now realized it has been nearly 2 months since I last logged in. I never realized how busy college full time would keep me offline. I haven't been doing many fun things lately between that and the kids. I have been doing well and kicking but in college. The kids have been well as well. Don't know when I will have time to be on a lot again...probably when the semester ends.

Thank you. It is a lot of work. The girls are getting for big. My oldest is about to start kindergarten. I have been solely focused on the girls and my college work. Trying hard to get my degree to provide more for my children.

Oh I understand. Keep trying. It's what I'm doing. Despite my crazy life schedule, I still somehow find it in me to keep going here. And I love every minute of it. We've all but said it before, no rush right? Your account's always here when you have time. A check-in is always nice!

Oh and, it's great you're so dedicated to your children. Just don't overdo it. It's times like these you gotta remember your limits. Even harder to find that perfect balance. But get through the semester first. As for this forum...it's in my capable hands, under the watchful eye of Koby...it'll always be here for you when you get done dealing with whatever life decides to throw your way.

I will have more free time on Summer break. I may try to revive the Graphics section. There wasn't much interest in it when I left off. I will try to check in a little more often. I honestly forgot about kametsu for awhile. My mind is taking in so much information that some things get forgotten. I do take a day off, usually Saturdays, and go hang out with a friend so I don't lose my sanity. Recently acquired a Nintendo Switch and been having a blast on Mario Cart.

I apologize for being MIA for a few months now. Being a mom and now have started college again to get my degree. I have been a little busy and haven't really been on much of anything. So a temporary hello.

Thank you everyone. I'm dealing with some stuff and I think its killing my creativity so I am hoping that a break will bring it back. If I get anything created while I am gone I will share it with you all. I will pop in every now and then to see how its going.

I want to saw now that I appreciate all that have participated in the Graphics section. I am not quitting for good and I have already spoken to Koby about the matter. For several months now I have been running this section on my own, as Limmi has been very busy and unable to help out here. Right now I am burned out. I have a lot of real life stuff I am going thru and this has not been my top priority lately. I have a creative block going on and the juices are just not flowing. Makes it harder when only one other person has been actually particatping in the contest with me.
So I am going on a month long hiatus. I am hope to be back and better than ever before the end of September. I don't like having to admit that I am human and have to take a break but I really need a break from it all. I will finish the current contest and that will be all for a while.
I will be back,
Alice

Sadly this one has gotten really slow this year. Me and urbatman seem to be the only ones who enter. This one took two weeks because I wasn't sure what to do...
I found this render this morning and the first thing I thought of was to make it look like she she was falling outside of the sig.
